Maybe they are just trying to get the job done for the client. I don't like making the team suffer but if they can't see the bigger picture of what we are trying to accomplish maybe consulting isn't for them.

See this is what I'm talking about, down to do work - I can probably outwork all of you, that's not the point. The point is that I sense a one-dimensionality to how you approach life and fulfillment, and that makes it hard for me to work with you because that's the only dimension you honestly care about/I can bring to our working relationship.
